  • The Mughrabi Quarter Digital Archive and the Virtual Illés Relief Initiative
    Are you saying there’s an original sin? The Mughrabi True, there is. Deal with it. Quarter Digital – Meron Benvenisti (2013) Archive and the Few spaces are more emblematic of Jerusalem today than the Western Virtual Illés Relief Wall Plaza, yet few people – including Initiative Palestinian and Israeli residents of Jerusalem alike – are aware of the Maryvelma Smith O’Neil destruction of the old Mughrabi Quarter that literally laid the groundwork for its very creation. For the longue durée of almost eight centuries, the Mughrabi Quarter of Jerusalem had been home to Arabs from North Africa, Andalusia, and Palestine. However, within two days after the 1967 War (10–12 June 1967), the historic neighborhood, located in the city’s southeast corner near the western wall of the Noble Sanctuary (al-Haram al-Sharif), was completely wiped off the physical map by the State of Israel – in flagrant violation of Article 53 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which stipulates: Any destruction by the Occupying Power of real or personal property belonging individually or collectively to private persons, or to the State, or to other public authorities, or to social or cooperative organizations, is prohibited, except where such destruction is rendered absolutely necessary by military operations.1 Two decades prior to the Mughrabi Quarter demolition, Jerusalem’s designation as a “corpus separatum” had been intended to depoliticize the city through internationalization, under [ 52 ] Mughrabi Quarter & Illés Relief Initiative | Maryvelma Smith O’Neil Figure 1.

Anti-Semitic Bigotry : A Retrospective As Chronicled By Historical Medals 2 BIGOT A person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance. Merriam Webster.com 2013 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND hile prejudice exists towards many religious and ethnic groups (Endnote 1), over the ages bigoted acts against the Jews have been among the most prevalent, severe and unrelenting. W This intolerance has manifested itself from the relatively inconsequential, such as slurs, insults and distribution of anti-Semitic paraphernalia (Eisler, 2014), to the devastating, including confiscation of property, expulsion from countries, and mass slaughter. Volumes have been written about anti-Semitism and its effects, but the question still remains as to the root causes of anti-Semitic attitudes: Why have they existed for centuries? and How have they been passed on from generation to generation? This article will attempt to examine this issue using historical medals as a backdrop and primary source of information.

    [email protected] TEMPORARY EXHIBITIONS “My Cup of Kafka… ” Drawings, Prints and Paintings by Jiří Slíva The very popular exhibition of work by the graphic artist and illustrator Jiří Slíva at the Jewish Museum’s Robert Guttmann Gallery came to a close on 27 January 2019. Over the course of 11 months, it was seen by as many as 52,274 visitors. On view were a number of drawings, colour lithographs, etchings, pastels and several oil paintings on Slíva’s favourite subjects – Franz Kafka, Sigmund Freud, the Golem, Jewish customs and symbols and biblical motifs, as well as other works inspired by Jewish writers. Jaroslav Róna – "Drawings from Elsewhere…" On Wednesday 6 March 2019, the Robert Guttmann Gallery hosted a preview of a new exhibition of work by the artist Jaroslav Róna (b. 1957), a founding member of the famous Czech art group Tvrdohlaví (The Stubborn). The subject of this exhibition is a set of Róna’s Drawings from Elsewhere from 2012–2018, which gives us an opportunity to delve more deeply into the artist’s world and ideas. Róna works in the fields of painting, sculpture, graphic art, drawing, mosaics, set design and stained glass. His drawings are an inseparable component of his work. They are the indispensable means of recording, seeking, shaping, and formulating new ideas and myths. All of Róna’s artworks convey a story, whether from the distant past or some future world, or whether about an entire civilization or an individual life. In this way, they differ from the purely visual or aesthetic visions of modern art concepts.

  • Temporary Exhibitions
    TEMPORARY EXHIBITIONS Robert Guttmann – The Prague Wanderer Until 23 August, 2020 visitors to the museum's Robert Guttmann Gallery can see an exhibition of works by the popular early 20th century Prague naive painter Robert Guttmann. The exhibition features Guttmann’s paintings and drawings from the collection of the Jewish Museum in Prague, as well as period photographs and documents which the museum has managed to collect over the years. In the inter-war period Guttmann was better known in Prague for his distinct appearance than for his pictures – a thin figure with a large head, handlebar moustache and rich mane of dark black hair, wearing a blue velvet jacket and an enormous green cravat. Guttmann sketched pictures in bars and cafés and even on the train, selling them without much ado for a few crowns to anyone who was interested. Hardly anyone at the time, however, thought that his work had any genuine artistic value. It attracted attention only for its eccentric and unusual qualities. The pictures provide an insight into a secluded, sensitive soul which was drawn to nature, to the integrity of childhood and to a profound faith. Guttmann’s eccentricity and defiance may have been a way of protecting his fragile, sensitive world from outside encroachment. As an artist, he refused to be a mere reproducer of reality and defended his right to his own creative self- expression. The Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia in March 1939 put an end to the genial world Guttmann had known. On 16 October 1941 Guttmann was put on the first transport from Prague to the Lodz/Litzmannstadt ghetto.

    Chabad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedivisiteda on 1/6/2015 Page 1 of 12 Chabad From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chabad, also known as Habad, Lubavitch, and Chabad-Lubavitch,[1] is a Orthodox Jewish, Hasidic movement. Chabad is today one of the world's best known Hasidic movements and is well known for its outreach. Organizationally, it is the largest Jewish religious organization in the world.[2][3] ,Wisdom" :( המכח , הניב , תעד ) is a Hebrew acronym for Chochmah, Binah, Da'at ( בח "ד :Founded in 1755 by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, the name "Chabad" (Hebrew Understanding, and Knowledge" which represent the intellectual underpinnings of the movement.[4][5] The name "Lubavitch" is the Yiddish name for the originally Belorussian village Lyubavichi where the movement's leaders lived for over 100 years. The Chabad movement represents an intellectual-mystical school of thought established and led by a dynasty of Hasidic rebbes. The movement was based in Lyubavichi (Lubavitch) for over a century, then briefly centered in the cities of Rostov-on-Don, Riga, and Warsaw. From 1940[6] until the present day, the movement's center has been in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn.[7][8] In 1950, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson became the seventh and last Rebbe of Chabad-Lubavitch, and transformed it from a small hasidic movement, into the largest Jewish movement in the world today. He established a network of more than 3,600 institutions that provide religious, social and humanitarian needs in over 1,000 cities, spanning 80 countries and 49 of the 50 American states.[9][10][11][12][13][14] Chabad institutions provide outreach to unaffiliated Jews, and humanitarian aid, as well as religious, cultural and educational activities at Chabad run community centers, synagogues, schools, camps, and soup kitchens.
